@2fd7551e no, there's way too much stuff in AOSP for me to possibly begin to figure out.
I do understand the architecture of AOSP, but there's 1000+ repositories in a local AOSP tree.
@87883523 Basically, you might have heard of open-source or free software before (free software, free as in freedom and not price, is more focused on user freedom than open-source), and we're getting to a point where, in theory, we can make ALL of the code running on at least the main CPU free software from the moment you turn it on to the moment it powers off.
@2fd7551e that... shouldn't happen.
afaik LineageOS is just AOSP with some extra changes, and fonts are not part of them (I checked), so that would be an upstream AOSP problem.
🚨 MAJOR MEDIATEK MOBILE LINUX NEWS 🚨
Not only is there the existing MediaTek 2020 leak (which includes datasheets, lk & preloader code, and some other stuff too), but we (#lowendlibre) are also now aware of:
- a BROM blob and bluetooth blob which both have debug symbols
- a preloader blob that has function names and even FILENAMES in it.

@c6fcef92 I find the thing about the nvidia and riva drivers odd - I read the source code myself, and afaik it is NOT obfuscated. It's just poorly written. There are even code comments in it!
